Makes Me Question Myself As A Dev

"Hmm...I don't know if I've ever actually really focused entirely on project for 2 years (2080 hours x 2) on one project.
I've put a lot of hours into my C'YaPass (FOSS Password manager - source at GitHub.) program but realistically it isn't 4160 hours.

I have a couple of work projects that I've worked on for that many hours over 10 years probably. But again, I don't think I've ever focused on one project for 2 years straight.

How about you?

1. Have you worked on any Work Projects with that kind of focus?
2. Have you worked on any Personal Projects with that kind of focus?

I thinking of "intense focus" (2 years straight) especially, but please share any experiences you've had.
